They also have wins and losses when ahead, behind and tied, although for some reason they don't give you percentages on those, just totals. As with many of these displays, you can check out matchups, so in scouting tonight's game, you could see that the Rangers have won 48.4% draws against the Devils in their previous three meetings.

This was a once very easy to find section of the NHL.com where most advanced stats sites would pull their data from. Now it's hidden down here, but the Summaries are all there with an added Shift Chart that give you a graphical display of the Home and Away TOI reports. Nice for seeing when a player gets benched or get visual view of pairings on defense or 5 man units, for instance:

Inexplicably, you can't filter or sort this Report by team, so you have to dig. You can change from season view to a date range though. Not great, but if you're trying to track down a game from Mid January, you can narrow the results.

Note: In all but the Game Report, you can remove the "Aggregate Results" check box and instead get a game by game report. So if you want to see how the Rangers faceoffs were in each game against the Devils, that can be done here.

Best season of his career 5v5. The scary thing too is that he's doing so well despite facing a lot of quality chances from up and personal. Eddie Lack, 1326.47 of 5v5 TOI, is facing shots of closer average length than Lundqvist with an AVG distance of 29.18 feet.

Some truly fascinating stuff considering the state of the defense this year, although you could say facing those extra shots has helped the save percentage, but I
wouldn't expect such a tremendous surge despite such an onslaught.

But it would help to protect the lead if you protect the puck. I think there is a reason the rest of the good teams in the league have positive corsi%

Oh definitely, good teams tend to have good possession stats. But even the best teams see drops in corsi% when they have a lead vs. when they're tied or trailing. Obviously, that effect is bigger for certain teams over others.
